after which refreshments were served, the

cake, tue former being handed around by
gentlemen, accompanied by pretty damsels,
who served the latter. The enjoyment or
the occasion was greatly increased by solos
by Mrs. DR.. Winter aud Mr.. Wilett and

Of the church, where the reception was

u1Tz.PRENTIss CASES.
The Prosecution Rapidly Dwlndlinl
Down to Nothing.

Down to Nothing.
The criminal prosecutions that were be-
gun under the administration Of ex-Gov.
II. II. Wells, as district attorney, carried
through Col. Corkhill's administration of
the Office, and merged into that Of District
Attorney Worthington, and known as the
German.American National Bank cases,
have about reached their end. From the
inception to the maturity Of the prosecution
there were about seventy indictments found.
AT first several Of the directors OF the bank
wereincluded with the president and cashier,
but for some cause trial was never had on
these indictments. A new batch was found,
In which the directors were dropped out
and President John Hitz and Cashier
DIR, Charles E. Prentiss were called upon
to face the music; meet the charge and trial.
The case selected, and upon which some
five indictments were consolidated, grew
out of transaction with the Importers
and Traders National Bank of New York.
When thistrial came on the government,
by direction Of the court, furnished to the
defendants a list of those indictments
which they would be called upon to meet
and answer. The trial for making false
entries In the books Of the bank was had
before Justice Macarthur, aud the accused
were convicted. Upon taking the case to
the general term the judgment was set
aside, and the decision OF the court demon
strated that the indictments could not stand
in any OF the false entry cases, which vlr-
tually disposed of that series. Since then
no action has been taken in the matter
until yesterday.
Judge Jere Wilson, in the criminal court,
brought to the attention of the court the
remaining indictments standing against
John Ditz and DIR. Charles T.. Prentiss iu
relation to their nets while officers Of the
German. American National Bank. lie
stated that those cases not enumerated In q
list furnished counsel. 1t was understood,
were not to be prosecuted.
District Attorney Wofthington indorsed
the statement, and the court directed dis.
missal Of these cases. TIE remaining cases
on the list were then considered, and all
| but two coming under the decision Of the
| general term, those so affected were dis
missed. This leaves two indictments for
| perjury stauGing, and i'll these demurrers
| have been filed.
'l will have to turn these over,n said
| Justice Macarthur, 'to the tender mercies
| and better judgment Of my successor, as
they will outlIye my official life"
| "Thcir judgment, yonr honor said Mr..
| Perry, "but not better judgment"
OF the numerous indictments found only
two remains, and it is doubtful II they are
| ever set for trial.
1t is the opiuion of many citizens that
| peither Mr.. IIitz nor DR.. Prentiss should
| ever have been proceeded against crlminally.
| IL there were any misdoings in the board
the entire directory should have been held
| accountable for 1t, instead of settling upon
| the president and cashier, and, as It hal
the appearance of spite work, many rejoice
that the prosecution failed.

Officer Kendall In the police court yes

proprietor of the hotel stated that he had
no intention OF violating the law, and gave
orders to his barkeeper to sell liquor only
to the guests, whom he wanted to accom-
modate.
Judge Smell ruled that the proprietor had
no right to sell liquor 10 his guests on Sun
day, and imposed a fine Of $50 aud costs,
from which an appeal was noted. The
collateral which had been given was re-
turned.
In the case OF Edward F. Brown, charged
with similar oirense, Officer Boland was
called to prosecute the defendant, but his
memory proved defective, and the case was
dismissed.
